Its not inconsistent. There certainly are those who can (and do) afford to take the risk, and for whom taking that risk pays off. However, if you ask folks why they are going outside the US to adopt, they just want to be parents. They just can't assume the emotional and financial risk of losing a child that they know they would come to love deeply.
